e U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Thursday filed a lawsuit over the Trump administration imposing a $100,000 fee to the H-1B worker visas.
-snip-
In a release regarding the lawsuit on Thursday, the Chamber called the new fee unlawful since it "overrides provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act that govern the H-1B program, including the requirement that fees be based on the costs incurred by the government in processing visas."
"The new $100,000 visa fee will make it cost-prohibitive for U.S. employers, especially start-ups and small and midsize businesses, to utilize the H-1B program, which was created by Congress expressly to ensure that American businesses of all sizes can access the global talent they need to grow their operations here in the U.S.," said Neil Bradley, executive vice president and chief policy officer at the U.S. Chamber in the release.
A White House representative didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

Yeah, it’s weird how freeploadink deadbeats like marcusmaximus has NEVER had his name on the FR donor board.
Cut a check.
Just what standing does the Chamber of Commerce have to bring a lawsuit?
How are they harmed? How many H-1B workers do they have?
If this were an important issue, like vote fraud, the courts would not even hear it, always based on “standing.”
So you check every thread to make sure the poster donated? Really? Does Jim Robinson know you are doing that? Did he hire you to do that?
They have no standing.
JR is feeling poorly, so deadbeat freeploaders like you and marcus are taking advantage to spew xenophobic garbage on the board to make Free Republic look bad.
You’re going home and the Chamber won’t save you. Pack your bags.
You’re not going back to the Great Big Zeeper thread, and your homes miss you.
Cut a check.
There's a REASON you won't contribute to the Freep-A-Thons - you're here to TAKE DOWN Free Republic, not help it.
Freeploadink deadbeat.
You lack standing Chamber. Neener neener neener.
Pack your bags. The Chamber won’t save you.
My story is that I donate each quarter via US Mail. I do not feel the need to broadcast my donations. I do this with my church as well.
I have been a member here for a few decades. In good times, I pay more. In bad times, not so much, but it equals out in the end.
I report to the head accountant upstairs.
The funny thing about you H1B Indians is that you can’t read a room and see that no one supports you.
Even your own zeeper team doesn't support you, you griftink, freeploadink deadbeat.
Cut a check to Free Republic, deadbeat.

I find it hard to believe that I align with kiryandil on this.
Marcus, stop the racial name calling. Freerepublic.com is a conservative site, not a racist one. In the 25 years I’ve been posting I see that we welcome all colours of skin as long as they are conservative.
Stop your name calling please, this only makes free republic look bad

Talk about not beink able to read a room...
No one supports you, Hadji. Look around you.
You don't support Free Republic, deadbeatusmaximus. Look at the donor board.

Think I’ll use this link to get on the board for Q4 2025, deadbeat. How about you? 😉😂😂
Indian media already cheering the lawsuit. Not a good look for your side.
Stop calling freepers racist because they oppose a globalist led invasion. This site stands against globalism.
Where did I call freepers racist, cowgirlusa?
Are you into the beer barrel already tonight?
I believe that someone else used the “racist word”, cowgirl.
Stop drunk postink.
